I gotta rag-top Chevy sitting out on the drive

Waiting on me to jump inside, and go, just go

It's a beautiful day, not a cloud in the sky

Miles and miles of countryside somewhere, out there.

I'm bored with a bar, sick of the city, tired of working all week

I'm gonna take some time to clear my mind, I know what I need

Open road, with the wind blowing back my hair

Cranking up the radio, driving away my cares

Never looking back

It's the only way to go

There's nothing like the freedom of an open road

There's a girl on the porch with cut-off jeans

As I fly by, she waves at me, she's fine

Oh, another time

'Round the bend I can see a farm with a couple of kids and an old red barn

The simple life, yeah that would be alright

Oh, when I'm sitting pretty with a full tank of gas, and a cooler on the seat

Right here, right now on this wheel is where I'm gonna be

On an open road, with the wind blowing back my hair

Cranking up the radio, driving away my cares

Never looking back

It's the only way to go

There's nothing like the freedom of an open road

One of these days I might just keep on driving

Leave it all behind for a new horizon.

On an open, with the wind blowing back my hair,

Cranking up the radio, and driving away my cares.

And never looking back

It's the only way to go

There's nothing like the freedom of an open road

Yeah, open road
